9020 Problem

Hey guys, I'm having a problem with my 9020 protein skimmer. I have a chip in the side of the clear plastic part where the foam goes up. The chip is where the plastic part sits on the housing and that side of the skimmer won't foam because water is coming leaking out where the chip is. I am wondering what I can do to fix this problem or how/where I can get a replacement.
 
I looked at the manual, I believe it is the reactor. It is the part that the skimmate goes out, it is at the top of the skimmer.
 
A picture would help but I think a small chip alone should not be a big deal. I think something else is wrong because water should not go up that high, only foam. My guess would be that you have the sponge above the top of the pipe and that is backing up water to that height or the pipe is inserted too far so the skimmer cannot drain.
